Next week’s episode of Impact Wrestling will be a “Best Of TNA” show.
While Thursday night’s show looked back at the company’s best moments of 2023, Tom Hannifan announced that next week’s show will look back at the best moments of TNA Wrestling.
Impact Wrestling will be returning to the “TNA” moniker at the Hard to Kill pay-per-view event, which takes place on January 13th.
In other news, The Iron Claw movie was released in theaters nationwide over Christmas.
In the film, it was indicated that Fritz Von Erich’s approach to his sons was partly responsible for the tragedies that befell many of them.
Speaking on a recent edition of the “Talk Is Jericho” podcast, Kevin Von Erich opined on how Fritz was portrayed in the film. He said,
“First, with this movie coming out, I’d like people to know that it’s a movie. It’s made for entertainment. It’s not quite as historical, but I’ll tell you my dad was a great man. I loved him so much. He was an honorable, good man. What he said, his word was his bond. When you shook his hand, it was a contract, it was honorable. I want everyone to know he comes off pretty rank in this movie.”
He continued, “You would think that the pressure that Fritz put on us is why my brothers would commit suicide. I mean, why would anyone commit suicide, that is so far beyond me, but it’s drugs. Drugs did it. That, and the fact that Kerry lost his foot and wouldn’t be able to come back. Mike, with that fever, he was not coming back. It was a hopeless feeling inside to let everyone down and you just feel like dirt. All my brothers were super loyal, and that’s what it was, the shame and guilt for failing. It was not my dad.”
